Looking in and looking back ...

Part of the Clyde Skyline for over a century, the corner building at 87 Glasgow Street was erected in 1851 by S.S. Briggs. Over the years it has been home to the A.E. England and Ben Franklin variety stores, the P&C and Grand Union grocery stores, the telephone office, Ketchum's Market, Morrison Appliance, the Clyde Masonic Lodge and for over 50 years, the Clyde Times newspaper.
85 Glasgow Street was erected in 1869 by A.E. Adams and has been home to Sherman Drug Store and hardware stores run by Guy H. Roy, William Kaiser and George Lewis. Ron and Jane Robert purchased the hardware store in 1974, renaming it Clyde Hardware, opening it to the corner building in 1984 and continuing to operate the expanded store since.
